Ally Heintz

Thinking of all of you during this very tough time. May you find peace and strength. Wishing you well.

I just wanted to let you all know that I think of you all often! I am sorry for all the hard times that you are all going through & no one, not even myself, could understand what you are all going through & we never will. I hope you all stay as strong as you can through these tough times & know that you are in a lot of peoples thoughts & prayers everyday. Also, Merry Christmas to you all & to Angel Ally, I hope you get every present that you could possibly ask for! You are missed everyday!

You have the right to express your true feelings.
We are here to listen and not judge. No one knows.....
but YOU! Wishing All a Blessed Holiday~
^Ally^...Merry Christmas Little Angel

I am so sorry.

A few weeks ago, Cody (he was in Sunday School with Ally) and I were outside kicking the ball on the ground to each other and he stopped kicking the ball to me and said "here" and started kicking the ball in the air. After kicking the ball for a while in the air I asked him what he was doing - he said I'm kicking the ball to Ally - He was giggling and having a great time. He continued to do this for about 10 to 15 minutes. When we were ready to go in he got to the door, stopped, turned around and said "Thanks for playing with me Ally". Thought it was important - since I firmly believe Ally is all around us all each day.

I am thinking of you all today, and just wish I could wrap my arms around you and give you a hug. You all are so etched in my heart and prayers.

Praying for God's Love and Prescence. I know that it may hard to feel or believe, but I can promise you....he is there.

Just wanted to say hi and let you know I am thinking of you and your families.

What a lovely poem! Just wanted to wish a good holiday season. We are keeping you in our prayers to make it through with love, courage and strength. God bless The Davis family

Because I had no computer for over a month, I was not aware of the huge loss your family suffered last month, until last night when I came accross the heart felt messages left by friends and family on Ally's site. You're family is in my prayers. I am glad that I got to know Ally, she will forever be missed. Ally will continue to live on through Ash. They were so very close that every experience Ashley lives will have a double blessing, as Ally supports her all the way. Jill and Shane you are very strong and raised two beautiful young ladies. Be proud that every moment of Ally's life she new you lived for her happiness, and you loved her deeply. Ashley also knows this, and with your streangth she will continue to blossom. I know this to be true because I see it in ever smile the girls wear on this site.

Just wanted you to know that I was thinking of you. Thank you for the Glass Tears website....what a beautiful tribute that is to Ally!!! In my thoughts and prayers

Just a note to let you know that I'm thinking of all of you.

I am praying for you all and remembering happier days with your spunky little angel in the 7IMC. No one who took care of her could walk away without a little love for Ally and your entire family.

Just wanted to let everyone know I am thinking of and praying for all of you often. One day at a time.

Just wanted to let you know you are in our prayers always. Dont ever forget that. Let us help in whatever way we can.
Give Ashley a hug and a kiss from us.

You do not know me and I just wanted to say that my thoughts and prayers are with you!! I am actually at a loss of words and have to say you dealt with a lot in the past four years. I read alot of your journal entries and I don't know how you did it. I have three children of my own and I guess people take for granted having healthy children and don't know what parents go through when you have a chronically ill child. I wish you and your family the best.

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful little girl. I find myself going to her web page quite often to see her beautiful smile as well as Ashleys'. We don't know each other but my heart aches for you and your families. You two should be very proud of yourselves, you are both amazing parents. You took care of Ally and she will now take care of you.

I sent you a message a few weeks ago. I'm not sure you got it. I wanted you to know how very sorry I was to hear about ally. My prayers are with you,Shane and Ashley. I've been thinking about you alot. The pictures are great.

You do not know me, but I just want you and your family to know that you're in my prayers. I simply cannot begin to imagine what you and your family must have gone through, and the pain you must feel. After reading Ally's story, I wanted to go wake my three year old daughter just to hug her and tell her that I love her. Ally will continue to inspire, and give love, even to those who did not know her. Your daughters are beautiful, and you are an inspirational family!

Shane,
I was so sorry to read about your daughter in the paper. You'll never remember who I am but I babysat you a few times when your parents lived on Lake Lane in LakeView Estates in Pennsburg. I'm sure your mom and possibly your dad would remember me. Of course I haven't seen you since you were a small little boy but I recognized your name as Ally's father immediately and just felt for you and your wife Jill. I just wanted to express my condolences to your family.

Shane, I don't know if you remember me but I just wanted to send my condolences to you and your family. I can't imagine what it is like to have gone through what you and your family have gone through. I recently had a baby boy and I can't begin to know what it would be like without him. You and your family are in my thoughts.

Good Morning... Please know that we are keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers.

God bless you

Though I do not know you or your family and I have only recently read about and viewed your website just now I was very touched at what a beautiful daughter and tribute you have made for her. I too have suffered the loss of a child. My son Todd Iatarola was killed in a car accident on August 13th, 2007, a little over a year. You may have heard about it, it was a horrific tradgedy and has touched many people in the Valley. I would like to offer my sincere condolences to you and your family. I know all to well the pain of the loss you are going through just know there are many who share your pain and walk along with you and your grief. I am a member of The Compassionate Friends(Quakertown Chapter) and if you feel the need for extra support please know you are not alone and always welcome. You have a wonderful little angel who will forever be by your side! My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I stumbled upon your page approximately two weeks ago through Gavin Owens site. I just wanted to say that I'm praying for you and your family. You are in my prayers and will forever be. That's great your daughter made a pumpkin for her too! Art therapy is a great thing. I just wanted to say that someone in Ohio is and will always be praying for your family.
God bless

You are all in my thoughts and prayers with what you all are going through, what an amazing and beautiful child! She will always be with you no matter where you are and what you are doing. God bless you all.

hi guys- the pics of Ashley are adorable...it looks like she had a lot of fun!! i think of you guys often and continue to pray for strength and peace. Hang in there & God bless

I don't know if you remember me, Jill, but I was a student chaplain at Children's Hospital. I am just so very sad to hear of Ally's death. She was a very special, amazing, and beautiful little girl. And you are such a wonderful mom. I met so many children and parents during my time at CHP, but you and Ally stand out in my mind as such a courageous, funny and wonderful team. I will pray for you and your family that you may eventually find peace in your memories of Ally and comfort in your love for each other. Thank you again for what you taught me about courage and love. The peace of Christ be with you, your husband, your daughter and your whole family.

Our prayers are going out to you the Heintz family in this loss of your baby girl.
I know we live in an amazing community that has rallied and cheered to help in so many ways for Ally and all the ups and downs. She is going to be missed. The Vincent's in Gilbertsville

Shane & Jill,
My Prayers are with you & your family. Remember as you breathe each and every breath of fresh air it is an Angel's wing against your face. "Ally's wing"
I enjoyed being a part of Ally's distant family even though for a short while

Jill,
you and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. You're so strong and resilient. I am very sorry i was not able to make it back to Boyertown this weekend. Please know I send you love, strength and peace. much love, debbie

Dear Jill,
We are so very sorry to hear about Ally. There are no miraculous words that can make this easier for you. Try to take just one minute, one hour, one day at a time. When you are unable to function because the pain is so intense, know that many are keeping you and your family in their prayers; and God is holding you in His hands right there with Ally. If there is anything we can do or if you simply need someone who understands what it is like to have their precious child go before them, please call. 610-385-6671
Love, Sue and Harvey Hohl

You are in our prayers constantly. We care so much for all of you, and feel so helpless. Please let us know what we can do. Anything!!
We ask God to take care of all your needs at this
very difficult time.
We love you all.
As Ever

I am so sorry for your loss. I didnt hear of your family until I saw it in the newspaper. I visited your website and read your life story. I think about what your family is going through often and your family is in my prayers.

I am so sorry to hear that Ally's fight has come to an end. I can't imagine losing a child. Jill, I knew you from St. John's when you were a young girl and you have always been a sweet person. Ally is resting in Jesus' arms right now and I hope that your family will heal in time. Cling to all your memories and cherish them. Then when you feel strong enough, go and make new memories with your other daughter. Ally would want it that way.

I am so sorry to hear about Ally. That little girl will be missed so much here on 7N. I loved coming to work when Ally was here. Her smile and energy were infectious. She would always make my day a little brighter. She was amazing. She was an angel.

I heard this song leaving your funeral Ally, it made my think of you, so I would like to share it.
James Blunt - Carry You Home
Trouble is her only friend and he's back again
Makes her body older than it really is
And she says it's high time she went away
No ones got much to say in this town
Trouble is the only way is down, down, down

As strong as you were
Tender you go
I'm watching you breathing
For the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means
And I'll carry you home
I'll carry you home

If she had wings she would fly away
And another day god will give her some
Trouble is the only way is down,down,down

As strong as you were
Tender you go
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means
I'll carry you home
I'll carry you home

And they're all born pretty
in New York City tonight
and someones little girl
was taken from the world tonight
under the Stars and Stripes

As strong as you were
Tender you go
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means
And I'll carry you home

As strong as you were
Tender you go
I'm watching you breathing for the last time
A song for your heart
But when it is quiet
I know what it means
And I'll carry you home

I'll carry you home

Jill, Shane & Ashley,
We are so sorry for your loss. We cannot imagine what you are going through. You are in our thoughts and prayers. May God bless you with strength in these trying times, with courage to continue forward and that you may find peace in knowing Ally is in a better place.

Luis & Cheryl

Dear Jill, Shane and Ashley,

We are another DuPont family that met you visiting little Anthony and met Ally in Childlife a few years ago. We have been following her story ever since. She touched us so much that we have shared it with many others. I was truly heartbroken to read of your loss. I cannot even imagine the depth of it and I have not written earlier because I don't even know what to say except that I am sorry. I don't know how you will go on but I do know that you will for Ashley and for Ally too because that is what she would want. She would want her family to be happy and to continue fighting in her name for other families. As the mother of a chronically ill child I know that your days have been filled with just caring for her for so long and so now what? Fill that time caring for each other. Holding each other up on the bad days. Again, I am so so sorry for your loss. I know words can not do it justice. Take comfort in knowing how many people all of you have touched. How many lives Ally made a difference in.
Max's favorite color is red too and I know that I will forever think of Ally when he insists on wearing red.

Laura

God bless you and your precious family as you send your beautiful little baby to Jesus for awhile, until you are together again. You were very blessed to have her in your life, your character will forever be imprinted with Ally's love and wisdom she brought your entire family. As short as Ally's life span on earth was, I'm sure you wouldn't trade a second of it away. God bless all of you and bring you strength. Big Sister Ashley now carries two loving hearts for her mommy and daddy to love. The knife you all feel in your gut will soon turn to loving memories and forever stories and pictures. Your strength will come. You have an awesome family.

We are so sorry to hear about your lost,But The Lord needed another ANGEL.We are neighbors to the Dunnings and we prayed for little Ally every night.May the Lord be with you at your time of sadness and lost.Our prayers will be with all of you

Dear family,
This is my thrid time wrighting to you,
Dear Ashley, It has taken me awhile to find the right things to say to you. I know that you don't understsnd why this happened but one day you will. It's nothing that you or mommy or daddy did wrong. Mommy and Daddy will always love you, AND they will always have Ally in their hearts and so will you. You are very brave and strong, i know with the love of your mommy and daddy, and help from family and friends you and your family with get through all this pain.
I'm sorry for your loss, I wish that no one had to go threw this kind of heartache.
